Description

After a week of inhaling dust to and from work, you see the skies open up and deliver beautifully tacky trails. You and your DAKINE Women's Tempest Short can't wait to tear it up. Dakine designed the Tempest Short to be cool and comfortable. Lightweight, stretchy polyester construction can handle all the abuse you can dish
out while letting your skin breathe and providing a full range of motion.

Dakine built the Tempest short with a four-way stretch polyester blend. Reinforced stitching through key stress areas ensures
several seasons of riding. A gusseted crotch adds durability and a
broader range of motion.

Hook-and-loop waist adjustments allow you to dial in a perfect custom fit and a women-specific cut flatters your figure without the boxy look of a men's short. Two front pockets carry your riding essentials.

The Dakine Ridge Short comes in four sizes: Small to X-Large. It's available in Black, Charcoal, and Watermelon.

Awesome Shorts

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

Fit:
True to size

I really enjoy riding in all weather in these shorts, they are breathable and when caught in a storm, the material dries very quick. I love the length, they are a bit longer than my other DAKINE biking shorts.

Comment on Pierre Lemire's review:

Material too slick for me

Very lightweight, 'slippery' material. Makes a lot of noise! Nice length, though. And, I like the lack of belt loops. I'm a size 4 pants, and the Small in these shorts were a touch too tight, and the Medium was too baggy for my liking.

Comment on mountaindesertgirl's review:

light and stretchy

These have a nice light and stretchy fabric that seems like it would be great for biking all summer. The rise was a little tall for my taste though, so I sent them back. For reference I'm 173lbs, 5'5" and would wear an XL in dakine shorts if their rises weren't so tall.
